and a lot of it is club on club bashing. it's the perfect place to trash a competitor, or a former employer. take "information" with a grain of salt, and if you're concerned about something that could be true, investigate it outside this board.
This board can be very informative, and can also be far fetched. Weed out for yourself what is true and not. Usually where there is smoke there is fire. Some of the PA threads got so much traction, and had so many of the same complaints- they resulted in a coach and a club president actually identifying themselves and posting on the board. The thread also resulted in wholesale changes at the club including removal of a DOC and a bunch of coaches. When the new DOC quit there were then posts about what led to that happening. In these cases I know the posts to be true, so it’s not all idle gossip.
Agreed with the fact there should never be specific kids called out on these threads. That is in very poor taste and unnecessary.
Sometimes posting a board is the only recourse parents have, and when the messages are consistent many times they are true.

No one has ever called out a child. Not sure where this is coming from. I've been on the threads for years and have never once seen a child called out by name. It seems people are just trying to start a commotion with any real facts.

Nobody has said that dopey, but there is a thin line between mentioning a specific kid negatively and trashing/being overly disparaging about the team they play on, especially when they are freakin 12 years old.
You wouldnt post it on a social media account with your name on it, that is for sure

Settle down, snowflake. Saying a team isn't good and lacks fitness isn't the same as saying #19 is an overweight piece of trash. I've never seen anyone called out by name or number on this site, regardless of how crap most of the posts are.
